Technical Assistance Q: Why is the display shifted or changed sizes when I switch display modes?Explain and Suggestion: Some monitors lack auto-sizing features or just do not synchronize properly to the video board output. In some cases, horizontal and vertical display adjustments may be necessary. Use the monitor control panel functions to adjust screen. In other cases, mode type and refresh rate adjustments may be necessary. Use the utility program, which is provided by video card manufacturer or production developer to center the display with normal 34 type (mode 3), and to reduce (decrease) the refresh rate with the monitor's specification. Q: What kind monitors can display 800x600 modes or higher resolution mode?Explain and Suggestion: To display 800x600 resolutions at 60Hz refresh rate, the monitor must be capable of synchronizing a 31. 5KHz horizontal scan rate (e. g. , NEC 2A, 3D).
